Back-to-School Bash 2025
STAND
Habakkuk 2:1-4
Our youth spent this weekend at GLBA worshipping and listening to God's Word. Our speakers, Fred Mills, Al Cervantez, Paul Case and breakout leaders Ed Williams and our own Grace McEuen shared their hearts with about 100 students and leaders. Friday started with a mission project. Some of our girls primed the building at the pool for a fresh coat of paint. Others walked around the campground and picked up trash. Our boys picked up limbs. We had 3 worship and teaching sessions, and then we had a breakout session where boys and girls were separated. We are thankful for all involved in putting this even together, and especially those that spoke truth over our students this weekend.
We hope and pray that our kids left this weekend feeling encouraged and challenged to not only stand firm in their faith, but to share the Gospel and what Jesus has done in their own lives. Paul Case shared today that the Gospel came to him on its way to someone else. As Christians, we are called to go and make disciples of all nations. Someone was doing their job when the Gospel was shared with you. Now don't let it stop with you!
God sent His only son, Jesus, to live a perfect life, and die a gruesome death on the cross to pay the debt for our sins, so that we could spend eternity with Him. Who do you have in your life that needs to hear the truth of the Gospel?
